Thanks for this video! I would not have imagined that I could do this myself, before finding the video. The trick of using a socket instead of a bearing press was what made me decide to try. It's done now following this video! A warning for everyone: there are small variations on Mavic hubs. Despite mine was exactly the same as this in every component, I found the bearings were 17/28/7 (and not 30mm), and hence had to use a 20mm socket (and not a 22mm) to push them in. I made a small donation. Thanks!
Absolutely brilliant video, thanks for creating and sharing this type of content. I'm new to all this and managed to remove the bearings following this video - had one seized bearing. Got some on order so hopefully can get it back together good as new. This inspires some of us to have a go at these things :)
Nice one mate, you saved me again. I would not have even known that very thin snap ring was there on the drive side, let alone how to get the thing out. My whole assembly was on the way to being seized solid, seems they don't really grease them up at the factory. Got it all cleaned up now and new set of bearings on order although the current pair are ok. Mine were 17287-2RS (MR17287) 17x28x7 from a bearing supplier. (Ksyrium Pro UST rim brake 2020)
My freehub is seized on the axle so I decided to take off the circlip on the other side and hammer it through, it went through the first hub bearing but now it is stuck on the second hub bearing closest to the ratchet system. I don't have how to remove it, I need something that would fit inside the axle and sit on the lip so I can hammer that!
@@smallhatshatethetruth7933 Did you figure it out ? My hub is also seized, I can't remove the freehub body ! Did you hammer it from the drive side or the non drive side ?
I have this same hub on my 2015 Cannondale Synapse. I've been looking for replacement bearings but so far haven't found any place on the web that sells bearings listed for this exact hub. The Mavic website doesn't seem to have these for sale and ebay lists bearings that supposedly fit Mavic wheels but don't specify bearings for the Mavic Aksium Disc Rear Wheel. Do you have a part number or some way of specifying which bearings I should order?? Also when I hold the rear brake and push the bike back and forth under pressure there is a popping sound kind of like spokes might make if rubbing together but I can't find any loose or broken spokes just that weird and rather loud snapping sound. Thank you for your great video by the way!!! One of the best instructional videos I've found, very clear and concise. Excellent job!
I have literraly just used you "how to fit a Shimano cassette" video to fit my new cassette onto my new Aksiums. As someone who has never done the bearing adjustments: why are they necessary and should I have done that to the new wheels before fitting the disc brakes and cassette? O_O Anyway, you seem to cover a lot of the tech I'm using and my long-term goal is to increase my technical understanding about my road bike. So thank you and you've got a new subscriber now. :)
Great video once I worked out this was the one for my hub! What type of grease did you use? Can I use Shimano mineral oil that other places have recommended?
@freetocycle, great clear video as always I'm struggling to see how the thin ring clip locks in place ( freehub bearing side with different shape ends ) does it slot in to groves on the sides on clip in to a flat slot ,I can't see either , is it even really required?
Thanks for this vid, was usefull. Only thing is, I do have a MS body, what kind of endcap does it need (just got the wheelset with XD and want to change it to MS).
Hello I watched this basically to see how the hub and ratchet fit correctly because I had an issue with my freehub slipping, I think I over greased it the 1st time because it still slipped then I cleaned it again using oil and it still slips. I've now ordered the recommended TP-42 dt swiss special grease and new spring because i think its elongated hope I can fix it the 3rd time as the wheels have only done 300 miles but there was rusty water on the inside
I liked the video because you went through every step in detail ;-) I have a question, does the video apply to all Mavic freewheel systems with Instant Drive 360, for example Crossmax Elite, XLS, SLS etc.?
One question would I be able to go down a size for a boost rear mavic cross max 27.5 micro splen …. 12x148 down to 12x142 ? Would that have to be machine
Great video! Do you have the part number for the non drive side en cap? I bought a used bike and I think the previous owner install a wrong cap, because my wheel is a little wobbly. Thanks
Hi! I have Allroads. The rear axle stucked. I could not push it out by hand. I had to use freeze spray and a wooden hammer to remove the axle. Is it normal? The reason I toke it apart the huge bearing play. It seems to me the weavy washer, QRM Auto, was not able to preload the bearings.
I have a Mavic Ksyrium UST wheelset. It has this same hub. I definitely have hub drag. I've completely taken apart the freewheel side, following these instructions. The bearings in the freewheel seem fine (also had a friend double check). I've cleaned and greased everything (using the pink DT-swiss grease for hubs) and I still have the hub drag. I've taken it apart and checked and cleaned and put it back together a few times, thinking I'm missing something. I did not take the bearings out. But I can't see anything wrong. Is there possibly anything on the disc side that could be contributing to hub drag? Should I take it all apart and clean the disc side also? Honestly I'm getting super frustrated. I even took it to a shop, but they barely did anything and fixed nothing. Any ideas?
Hi mate, I've got to change a Mavic Allroad Pro front wheel (6B) from 12mm thru to 15mm thru - have the spare new axle and end caps - will i need to replace the bearings too? Cheers
The problem i have with this 360 freehub is that it kicks through when i am pedaling. When i put any pressure on the pedals or tighten a new cassete on the freehub it just fails and doesn't connect somehow. i've only had these wheels for a year so i doubt that it's worn out, I have disassambled and regreased everything but the problem consists.
Thanks very much - this video was really helpful!
I’ve just used this as I couldn’t find anything on the Mavic Allroad Disc but this is as close as it gets. Thanks so much.
My definite default channel for bike repairs and maintenance. This got me out of a jam, once again. Cheers for all the vids.

i spent quite a while thinkin it works like all my other hubs... then found your vid, did it in minutes... thank you
Lifesaver! Assumed the ratchet lockring was screwed in like DT SWISS - snap ring, who’d have guessed?! Thanks man
better explanation than the mavic tech video , thankyou

Where did you order your bearings? Did they fit OK?
@@rjvaughn Hi, got them from airevelobearings on Ebay. Yep they fit fine.

That's helpful 🎉 thank you
Thanks a bunch brother. You accent seems like you are very close to where i live in Gloucestershire
What a terrific resource, thank you.
Poetry in motion!
Great vid, thanks a lot. It was invaluable in helping me to change my bearings. Cheers
Very helpful video, thankyou!
Great tutorial!
Nice video. Long live Shimano hubs!
Thanks mate. Great video
Gran video 👌
Great video - thanks
Good work.
Great tutorial.thanks

On this version we can't change the freehub body bearings, right ?
Mavic Instant Drive 360 Freehub Bearing Change

Can you recommend a uk site to order the bearings from and what am I ordering? I.e. bearing measurements! Thanks
Thanks for this vid, was usefull. Only thing is, I do have a MS body, what kind of endcap does it need (just got the wheelset with XD and want to change it to MS).

I have a question, does the video apply to all Mavic freewheel systems with Instant Drive 360, for example Crossmax Elite, XLS, SLS etc.?
Was bang on for my 2020 Deemax elite hub.
Where can I buy that bearings press on the internet?
One question would I be able to go down a size for a boost rear mavic cross max 27.5 micro splen …. 12x148 down to 12x142 ? Would that have to be machine
Mate do you have the size of the bearing. Thanks
Great video!
Do you have the part number for the non drive side en cap? I bought a used bike and I think the previous owner install a wrong cap, because my wheel is a little wobbly.

Hi mate,
I've got to change a Mavic Allroad Pro front wheel (6B) from 12mm thru to 15mm thru - have the spare new axle and end caps - will i need to replace the bearings too?
Cheers
No the bearings should be 15mm internal diameter!
@@FreeToCycle Thanks mate good stuff!
Great videos, I am really struggling to remove the freehub body from the hub. Any tips? Cheers
Clamp the freehub in a vice with soft jaws and pull up on the wheel rim! Probably just stuck from lack of grease!
Mine was also hard. I screwed on the cassette lock ring, and used it to leverage up onto the axle with a flat head screwdriver.
@@FreeToCycle I simply can't get mine off. I've tried clamping it in a vice, pulling it from side to side, it's not moving at all.
Hello, how to change freehub bearing?
Im from Brasil, i aways watch your videos help me i lot in my bike shop!
I already found in you channel! Thank you
The problem i have with this 360 freehub is that it kicks through when i am pedaling. When i put any pressure on the pedals or tighten a new cassete on the freehub it just fails and doesn't connect somehow. i've only had these wheels for a year so i doubt that it's worn out, I have disassambled and regreased everything but the problem consists.
I’ve replaced the freehub body thinking the squeaking was that but it’s not so I’m assuming it’s the bearings
I.had a set.of rim.brake aksium wheels about 3 years ago..I wonder if they.were.ratchet too.
2 pawl hub on the rim brake wheels!
Anyone know how easily the bearings are meant to spin? Mine feel smooth but stiff, if you give them a spin they stop the moment you let go
Thank you quite useful, as Mavic doesn’t give any clear explanation.
I have the same wheels. I'm dreading the day i have to do this. Seemsb like too many things going on in there.
to be honest -just follow the disassembly/assembly...take few pics if needed - have correct tools... not so bad...
